Hit play on this and skip to 0:20 before reading rest of post!
So....the Hungaroring.
1) Will Nico crack like an egg with only a solitary point separating him from that 'faster guy in the other car'?
2) Will Lewis (4 time Hungaroring winner) manage to take the WDC lead at the end of this race?
3) Could either Mercedes encounter yet another reliability issue during the weekend?
4) Could we see another non-Mercedes victory this season (AKA Redbull of course)?
5) Will Ferrari "passionately" go for the win while running in 7th or 8th and give us another creative reason for not winning a race this season?
6) Could Redbull take over 2nd place in the WCC at the end of this race?
7) Will we see Ricciardo making his famous dive-bombs into Turn 1 yet again this season?
8) Will Verslappen show Ricciardo how to drive, for the 3rd straight race weekend??
9) Could Kvyat finally get rid of that voodoo in his race car and pull out a good result, for once!?
10) Will Hammer submit his predictions 30 seconds late again and piss off Ryry & WB!?
HUNGARYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Cool I just learned that Turn 11 is the fastest corner on the track! All this time I thought it was Turn 4.

They also now forbid Mercedes from using the driver instruction "Okay Lewis, It's Hammer Time."

Hey, as long as it's applied consistently I'm okay with it.

Something I liked was that the teams can give all the coaching they want if the driver is in the pitlane. Did I understand that right? So if any driver is having a serious problem, can the team inform the driver to drive through the pitlane (a loss of about 15 seconds or so) and while he's coasting through, give him all the advise he needs to rectify the issue? Or does he need to box?

Or does he need to box? The way I read it, the team can commence with instructions as soon as the driver trips the pit lane line. If the advice is quick and the actions so simple that the driver can make the fix and keep driving through, that's OK. SaveSave

If you have a problem and it is costing you, the only resolution if you don't know how to fix it is to pit in...Again, its stupid in my opinion but this is the same idiots who thought we should continue with the knockout quali even though it was a joke the first time.

Crap, Lewis hit the barriers though he managed to drag the car back to the pits. No more running in FP2. Fortunately he's running a Friday gearbox, not a race box.

Mercedes apparently brought a raft of aero upgrades here, they seem to be working pretty well.

I can't begin to say how much I feel like punching Charlie Whitings face. This a$$hole is screwing up potentially great sessions, this is QUALIFYING, we have wet tyres, if certain drivers can't keep their cars on track tough sh*t! I get it if its racing but this is QUAL, they can stop the race or go VSC mode if a bad crash happens at anytime.
When you NEED caution this pr!ck doesn't bring out the SC, he probably realized he got Bianchi killed thanks to his incompetency in failing to engage the SC and is now busy trying to overcompensate for his past BS. Ted just said he asked him about Silverstone, "why did the SC stay out so long at the start", the pr!ck replied "for safety"...fvcking moron.
